Today, the Hill Museum & Manuscript Library (HMML) is known for its use of digital photography technology to preserve manuscripts. The majority of HMML’s manuscript holdings, however, are microfilms dating back to 1965. Most of the current requests for manuscript copies from scholars are for manuscripts on microfilm.
